Help: Table Creation

[mprabu_p]

Dear All,

Please clarify the below statement.

--------------------------------------
Enter thr Table Name: --------
--------------------------------------

The above one is my input screen . when i enter the table name in the input field i want to create the that table. Is this possible in progress?
normally we create the table using the statment "CREATE pt_mstr" Instead of i want to create the table which is I entered in the input field.

How i solve this problem? Please Help!

Thanks.

I think that you mean that you wish to create a record in a dynamically named table. Not that you want to create a new table definition.

If that is correct then you need to learn about "dynamic queries".

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I want to upload some records in the exsisting table. so the syntax is

create pt_mstr
assign pt_part = "ABCD"

But i know the table name at run time only. Can i Pass the table name as parameter.

Tom's answer is the perfect one for what you want to do.

Here's a link to Progress' documentation about dynamic buffers & "create" method.
